Gastric bypass versus sleeve for the 300+
Why would a doctor say "you can do the sleeve then revise to bypass"Your body and your health is not a joke.He may think it's great to cram in surgeries and make money off performing multiple surgeries but believe me you want to have one surgery.The best that works for you.Lose that surgeon.Find one that listens to you....not the other way around....
